🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 Binder 드라이버에서 munmap() 호출과 binder_update_page_range() 간의 경쟁 상태로 인해 발생하는 Use-After-Free(UAF) 취약점입니다. mmap_lock의 권한 변경으로 인해 VMA가 해제된 후에도 해당 메모리에 접근을 시도하여 시스템 불안정성이나 권한 상승을 초래할 수 있습니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
메모리를 사용하는 도중에 다른 프로세스가 그 메모리를 갑자기 삭제해버려서 발생하는 오류입니다. 이로 인해 컴퓨터 시스템이 멈추거나 해커가 시스템 제어권을 얻을 위험이 있습니다.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF of alloc->vma in race with munmap()
[ cmllamas: clean forward port from commit 015ac18be7de ("binder: fix
UAF of alloc->vma in race with munmap()") in 5.10 stable. It is needed
in mainline after the revert of commit a43cfc87caaf ("android: binder:
stop saving a pointer to the VMA") as pointed out by Liam. The commit
log and tags have been tweaked to reflect this. ]
In commit 720c24192404 ("ANDROID: binder: change down_write to
down_read") binder assumed the mmap read lock is sufficient to protect
alloc->vma inside binder_update_page_range(). This used to be accurate
until commit dd2283f2605e ("mm: mmap: zap pages with read mmap_sem in
munmap"), which now downgrades the mmap_lock after detaching the vma
from the rbtree in munmap(). Then it proceeds to teardown and free the
vma with only the read lock held.
This means that accesses to alloc->vma in binder_update_page_range() now
will race with vm_area_free() in munmap() and can cause a UAF as shown
in the following KASAN trace:

==================================================================
To prevent the race above, revert back to taking the mmap write lock
inside binder_update_page_range(). One might expect an increase of mmap
lock contention. However, binder already serializes these calls via top
level alloc->mutex. Also, there was no performance impact shown when
running the binder benchmark tests.
